"Suspension feels far superior to my Bronson V2. The bike performs well in chunky rock gardens. The V4 does a great job of absorbing bumps. Was enjoying my new bike until the rear DT Swiss 240s hub failed on the second ride. Currently waiting for DT Swiss to warranty the hub. Spoke to a local Specialized bike dealer who said this has been an issue with DT Swiss equipped Turbo Levo bikes. Looking forward to getting back on the bike after the issue gets resolved."
"2 weeks of hard riding. . . have prob a doz sessions in at the local trails/bike park. Mostly flow trails & Jump trails. More bike than I need but doesn't needlessly hinder me in climbing either. Pedals hard when seated and in position. Bike has great balance and "knows what to do". Been out of the game for 5+ years and have loved getting back in shape w/ this bike. Killer build and zero complaints so far. I am 6'3" 245#. . . had to add air to rear shock from the stock RS recommendations. . . . I think I am at 260psi now. Super happy w/ the bike and Cambria."
"I recently took this Santa Cruz Bronson 4. 0 Carbon out on a ride in Bend, and it was an absolute blast. The mixed wheel setup really shines — the 29" front wheel rolls over technical sections effortlessly and gives great confidence when charging downhill, while the rear stays playful and nimble. The build quality is what I’ve come to expect from Santa Cruz: solid, refined, and ready to ride hard. For the level of performance and craftsmanship, the Bronson offers an incredible value — you really feel like you’re getting a top-tier bike at a great price. I’ve been riding Santa Cruz bikes for over a decade now, and every time I throw a leg over one, I’m reminded why I keep coming back. The Bronson 4. 0 delivers everything I love: reliability, fun, and that unique Santa Cruz feel. Couldn’t be happier with it!"
"Picked this up for my 12 year-old son, and it was instantly noticeable how well suited this bike is for him. The carbon CC frame is nice and light and the XT group set is amazing. If you’re thinking about buying this bike, just pull the trigger."
"Great bike, great Price. Only funny thing about it is they shipped it with an E-Bike specific fork for a 5'0 115lb rider. Definitely less than ideal but she loves it anyway"
"These guys were great. They were super responsive, answered all my questions and I got a smoking deal on an amazing bike. The bike came within days in perfect condition. I would definitely recommend and use them in the future. Thanks team for helping get me on my new dream bike."
"Absolutely phenomenal bike, especially for the price. Very light weight for how capable it is. Only issue I had was the bike came with a Maxxis DHF 29x2. 3” front tire (white label) despite the listing stating it should have a DHR 29x2. 4” (yellow label). Minor detail, but I’d prefer the DHR."
"Love my new Bronson, especially at the price I paid. This V4 is a bit more trail oriented than the new one which suits me better. Best part was getting the whole bike for less than the msrp of the frame."
"Took me a while to pull the trigger on the XS Bronson, but I'm glad I did. Picked this bike up for my 12 yo, who is still a couple of inches below the recommended height. We swapped out to 155 mm cranks, a 32 mm stem, and took off the dropper for a standard post so he has room on the downhill. It's an absolute game changer of a bike."
"No issues with order at all. I received the bike I ordered, in the correct size, and for an astounding price. I would recommend purchasing from Cambria bikes. They respond to emails not so much the phone. So if you need to contact them use the email and they get back to you quickly. I hope they can help me out with the front hub wheel spacer that is missing. Not their fault, could be mine."
